Chapter 228: Dark Shadow
() 1.
If I could understand the horse, I would have interrogated the animal that had carried me to Lin'an. For a while, I even suspected that it was an undercover agent that Yi carefully arranged by my side.
However, the horse's mouth could not get out of his mouth. The only ones that could be pulled out were half-chewed forage.
Lou Qin left a letter and left.
After I received the letter, the signboard of the Louqin Inn was taken off and replaced with a new signboard - Baishi Building.
I asked, what does the name mean?
The middle-aged man said that his name was Xie Zhuo, and his father had inherited the ancestral business and ran a Wanshilou in Luoyang City. Later, Wanshilou was gone. He wanted to rebuild the glory of his ancestors, so he named it Baishilou, and when the inn was better, he replaced Baishilou with Wanshilou.
After the plaque is installed. Xie Zhuo said to me, "You are the first guest of Baishi Building. ”
I said, "Good." Do you have any good wine here?"
Xie Zhuo said with a smile: "A pot of peach blossoms is drunk, and all kinds of brew are like water." ”
Peach Blossom Drunk......
It's a good name.
I sat by the window and laid the blood on the table.
The peach blossom brewing people are not drunk, standing haggard, lying down and crying. I think that I can still drink a pot of wine and taste the taste of pain in my life, and I have no regrets.
2.
Peach blossom drunk.
Although the name is beautiful, the wine is very strong. After drinking a few pots, he was already too drunk to wake up.
It wasn't until late at night that I woke up from the blur. Probably because I didn't eat anything, my stomach was burning like a fire, and it was extremely uncomfortable.
I poured a bowl of cold water, drank it in a big gulp, slowed it down a little, walked to the window, and watched the cold moon in the sky in the evening breeze.
Where Lou Qin went, I don't care too much anymore.
Everyone has their own path to choose. Once upon a time, she said that she stayed in Lin'an, thinking that she and Zhao Gou were in the same city, which was both comforting and painful. Now that she's gone, I think she probably doesn't need that kind of comfort, and she doesn't want to suffer anymore.
I looked far away.
In the distance, under the cold moonlight, a dark shadow swayed on the eaves in the distance, swaying from one eaves to another in the blink of an eye, and jumping back in the blink of an eye.
I thought I was drunk and hallucinating. In the middle of the night, who would be so bored, jumping around on the roof of Lin'an City.
But soon, I realized that there were really people who were extremely bored.
It wasn't my hallucination, but it was a guy jumping around on the roof of someone else's house, not knowing what he was doing. But one thing is certain, this person is extremely martial arts.
I jumped out of the window and ran towards the shadow.
Before he could reach him, the black shadow suddenly let out a few strange laughs, and then disappeared without a trace.
The disappearance of the dark shadow made me feel not only surprised, but also frightened from the bottom of my heart. This is really a terrifying thing, because with my martial arts today, there should be no one in this world who can disappear without me reacting.
But this man does exist. He had just disappeared from my eyes, without a trace, and I didn't even see what he looked like, or even his body shape for.
Who could this person be?
The night wind became colder and colder, as if everything around it had frozen. This cold does not come from my heart, but I really feel cold.
There is only one kind of martial art in this world that can bring such a strong chill to people
Meaning.
This kind of martial arts is practiced by only two people in this world. One is me, and the other is Chen Boyang.
I stood on the roof, looking hard, hoping to see a vague shadow in some corner, even a trace of what could be found.
But...... No.
3.
I know that Chen Boyang is in Lin'an City.
He must be hiding somewhere, doing something unexpected at the moment. Maybe the next moment, he'll go on a killing spree.
I have to find him. There can be no delay.
I wanted to run to the Wulin League overnight. I had to go there to find the brothers of the Corridor Society, and let them try to help me find the clues left by Chen Boyang in Lin'an City.
This opportunity is particularly valuable. If you can't grasp it, once Chen Boyang leaves Lin'an, he will disappear into the vast rivers and lakes again, and people will be nowhere to be found. At that time, looking for a needle in a haystack and looking for him, I don't know how many innocent lives will be killed or injured in this world.
On the Leifeng Tower, each floor emits a faint yellow light.
Even in the middle of the night, the tower was still brightly lit. The candlelight, which was always bright all night, had never been extinguished since I set foot in Lin'an.
Although its light is not as dazzling as the sun, nor as bright as the moonlight, it is the only long lamp in Lin'an City that can show me the way in the middle of the night.
Facing the light of Leifeng Pagoda, I ran all the way to the hill opposite it. As soon as I stepped up the mountain, I could already feel the weirdness of the atmosphere.
The rocks underfoot are cold enough to puncture the soles of your shoes. The trees on both sides were withered, blackened, and dead......
I realized that Chen Boyang had already been here. I had a bad feeling, very strong, and I unconsciously quickened my pace.
The door of the Wulin League was closed.
I reached over with one hand, and the moment I touched the door, it felt like I had touched a piece of ice. I hurriedly pulled my hand back and kicked the door open.
Under the cold moonlight, the courtyard of the Wulin League was full of dead bodies, and there were more than seventy or eighty corpses at a glance. Some of the corpses were lying on their stomachs, some on their backs, horizontally and vertically. No fear, surprise, or any other strange expression could be seen on the faces of the corpses lying on their backs, and even some of them had a cheerful smile......
It's just terrifying. Because all the irrational phenomena can only show that the murderer killed everyone in an instant. It was so fast that it didn't have time to react.
Even the inconsistencies don't have that speed.
It can only be said that this murderer is more terrifying than the yin who asks for his life in hell.
"Chen Boyang!" I roared angrily, "I know you're here, you get out of here." ”
The voice echoed in the courtyard of the Wulin League, from near to far and then from far to near......
I plucked out the blood, and started from the first room of the east wing, one corner after another, corner after corner...... Until I searched all the places in the Martial Arts League, I still didn't see anyone.
Standing among the corpses everywhere, staring at the unfamiliar face. They should all be brothers in the corridor society, they used to be the poorest people in the world, Bai Jingxing handed these people over to me, and I promised them a good life. But I have repeatedly taken advantage of them and let them get involved in the turmoil that should not have been.
Now they are dead, killed by Chen Boyang. Every one of their lives has been engraved with my name ever since, no matter what
Whether it is between heaven and earth or in the underworld, there are sins that I can't wash away.
4.
I sat in the courtyard of the Wulin League all night.
The sky dawned, and the warm sunlight gradually sprinkled into the courtyard of the Wulin League. The sun was indeed warm, and it quickly drove away the cold in the yard, but it could not drive away the cold in my heart.
I got up suddenly, dressed in the brilliance of the morning glow, but with the sins all over my body, I walked towards the outside of the Wulin League. Personal enmity and public hatred overlap, Chen Boyang's life must be ended by me personally.
"Oops!"
I had only taken two steps when I suddenly heard a scream under my feet, which really startled me.
I was startled, jumped out, and drew my sword on guard. But I saw that the "corpse" that screamed just now was lying on the ground and trembling. Surprised and delighted, I hurriedly put away my sword and turned the "corpse" over.
"Ming Shaozhong!"
"Helper!" Ming Shaozhong heard me calling him, suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and knelt on the ground, and when he raised his head again, he was already in tears.
I felt a little relieved. At this time, it is indeed a great surprise that someone can escape death. I asked, "What the hell is going on here?"
Ming Shaozhong cried: "Helper." Yesterday evening, our brothers in the city sent a message saying, "I saw you appear in the city of Lin'an." I think that since you have returned to Lin'an, you will definitely return to the Wulin League, so I gathered a hundred and ten brothers in Lin'an City and waited for you in the Wulin League. Last night, when we didn't wait for your news, we took a break in the Wulin League, but I didn't expect a cold wind to blow into the yard suddenly, I only felt that there was a flash of red light in front of me, and all the brothers fell to the ground one after another. Fortunately, I reacted in time, and I pretended to lie on the ground, and then I heard a strange laugh, and I, I never dared to get up again. ”
His words undoubtedly confirmed all my suspicions.
I said, "Do you know where that man went?"
Ming Shaozhong shook his head, but suddenly nodded again, just nodded twice, and then began to shake his head, looking uncertain.
I hurriedly said, "Do you know?!"
Ming Shaozhong said vaguely: "I, I don't really hear it, it seems to hear what he said about Tianmu Mountain, how is his junior brother, I was so scared at the time, so many people died in the blink of an eye, and I was so scared that my soul was about to fall." ”
Tianmu Mountain?!
Chen Boyang's junior brother was forced to death by me in Tianmu Mountain. I guess that he must have avenged his junior brother by going to the Wulin League to kill this time.
At this time, he may have returned to Tianmu Mountain. Whether it is or not, this is the only clue.......
I turned around to leave, and suddenly heard Ming Shaozhong shouting behind me: "Where is the helper going, don't leave me!"
I said, "I'm going to do this." You can't follow me. ”
Ming Shaozhong said: "No, I must follow the helper." ”
I said, "Chen Boyang is dangerous. It's useless for you to follow me. ”
Ming Shaozhong stopped me and said, "Help the master look at these brothers on the ground, many of them have shared weal and woe with me and have suffered for many years. They are all dead, and my only wish is to avenge them. Although I am not good at martial arts, I have a heart and a pair of eyes, and I will take the place of these brothers to witness the moment when the gang leader avenges them. ”
I was touched by his loyalty.
I patted him on the shoulder and said, "When the time comes, you'll have to stay away." ”
Ming Shaozhong said excitedly: "The helper agreed?"
I nodded, bypassed Ming Shaozhong, walked out of the Martial Arts League, towards Tianmu Mountain, towards the end of it all.
